  Drinking really nicely here after about 30 minutes of slow ox. Big purple fruit, pencil lead and granite earth. Tannins are soft and supple. Great QPR.

  Quite enjoyable. Not overly refined, put an excellent full-bodied New world wine.

  My last bottle of this and really nice for a glass or two but then then too jammy and sweet. This has been my least favorite vintage of this wine. It is normally a good crowd pleaser and good to drink when you want something indulgent and mindless (similar to a trashy paperback to read on the beach).
